The Who Live at Copps Coliseum Performing Baba O'riley and Wasteland

Venue: Copps Coliseum Location: Hamilton, Ontario, Canada Date: October 22, 2008

On October 22, 2008, The Who delivered a memorable performance at Copps Coliseum in Hamilton, Canada. Just a couple of years prior, in 2006, they released *Endless Wire*, their first album of new material in over two decades. This album was something special—it marked a significant return to form, featuring the rock operatic textures the band is famously known for. With tracks like "Francesca" and "Mike Post Theme," it was clear they were still in top form, blending classic sound with contemporary vibes. The 2008 live recording you mentioned is a beautiful testament to their enduring energy; despite years on the road, Roger Daltrey’s voice carried that raw power while Pete Townshend’s guitar riffs ignited the crowd. Talk about a legacy! The performance of "Baba O'Riley" in this setlist gives fans a nostalgic taste of The Who's chronicles, beautifully linking past glories with their relentless drive to create.
